One Day In Death Valley

What’s it like to live in a converted fire truck for one day in Death Valley? Join me for details in One-Day-In-Death-Valley-Bob Davis Podcast 1167.

Podcasts About My New Rig

Firstly I have been doing podcasts about the new rig.

In fact it has become sort of series.

A Dream

Without a doubt my repurposed 1999 Freightliner FL-70 First Responder Unit 11 is a dream.

But I get a lot of questions from listeners and viewers asking what it is like to live in this vehicle.

YouTube Channel

Secondly if you watch the YouTube channel video here you’ll get a good visual idea.

Audio Provides Depth

In addition this audio podcast has more specific content regarding what I did and why.

Solitude

Furthermore I am able to spend a little more time on the audio podcasts talking about topics like solitude.

Freedom From Toxic Content

As well as why I won’t discuss current events in these podcasts either on video or audio.

Watch Or Listen

Thirdly the Death Valley backdrop is great for video if you want to watch.

Mindfulness

Equally important the Death Valley backdrop is so valuable for mindfulness.

Special Place

Correspondingly I can’t get enough of this special place.

New Experiences

And I want to come here for a new experience every year.

Death Valley Podcasts Every Year

Consequently you can expect Death Valley podcasts every now and then in the future.

Thirty Days In The Park

Generally speaking one can spend about thirty days per year in the park.

With this in mind I want to use up every moment of that thirty days.

Winter Escape

Especially in winter.

Rain

Another key point concerning this trip was the rain.

Certainly we don’t associate Death Valley with rain.

Yet it does rain in the park every now and then.

Vast Palette

Surprisingly when it does rain there is a vast palette of colors and light.

Emotional Impact

In the same fashion the vastness adds up to a very emotional impact.

Solitude Is A Goal and Asset

Most importantly the solitude and quiet becomes quite an asset.

In view of the insanity in the everyday world having the opportunity to spend some quiet time becomes a huge asset.

To put it another way it is said either you love Death Valley or you can’t wait to leave.

Of course I am the prior rather than the latter.

Above all I am one of those who cannot get enough of this place.

Lean In

Finally all the social media experts tell creators to ‘lean in’ to current issues.

Relatability

That is to say this is the way a creator becomes more ‘relatable’.

Pure Experience

However this isn’t what motivates me as a creator.

All of the sudden it becomes very important and relevant to actually provide a place where current events talk doesn’t take away from the pure experience.

All in all the pure experience might be the most relevant thing we need right now.

Join me for One-Day-In-Death-Valley-Bob Davis Podcast 1167 and open the door to that experience.

New-Rig-Roadtrip-Ready-Bob Davis Podcast 1165

New Rig RoadTrip Ready

New Rig Roadtrip Ready. Firstly, got a new rig and a big announcement for long time listeners and subscribers to The Bob Davis Podcasts.

Difficulties

Secondly getting these two things done this summer proved to be difficult. One of the reasons there hasn’t been a new podcast in awhile.

Roadblocks

In other words sometimes it felt like there were roadblocks at every corner.

Tough Times Require Determination

When things get tough it’s important to realize it’s one step after another.

Follow Through

By all means follow through became the order of the day.

School Bus Anyone?

To begin with I wanted a School Bus.

However searching for a ‘Skoolie’ proved to be disappointing to the point of becoming depressing.

Asking For Help

At length I decided I needed help.

Enter my old friend Ed Johnson. Afterward things got easier and more fun.

In reality Ed couldn’t understand why I wanted a school bus.

Fire Rescue

In the long run I ended up with a decommissioned Fire Rescue truck.

Best Thing

All in all this turned out to be the best thing that could have happened.

Winter Is Coming

Because my deadline for leaving Wisconsin around Labor Day…

Even More Determination To Get Ready

And due to the fact we took possession of the truck on Labor Day…

Lots Of Work

In reality I had a lot of work to do in the next few weeks to get the new rig road trip ready.

CDL Required

With this in mind when we bought the new rig we didn’t realize the weight and air brakes required a CDL to drive it.

So I had to go get a CDL.

Solar, Heat and Living Space

In addition there was the issue of Solar Power, creating a living space in a different space, and getting heat in there.

Fall

As a result as fall drew its veil over the fields and lake I went to work.

Before The First Snows

At the end of the day I managed to get out of dodge just before the first snows in early November.

Manifesting

As I have noted I learned a lot about manifesting what one might want.

Better Than I Could Have Imagined

On the whole I was surprised at how what I wanted and what I ended up with turned out to be better than I could have imagined.

Thanks

Finally there’s a lot of people to thank…

New Story

All of the sudden I have a new story to tell.

In time I’ll also share how doing a bunch of stuff I didn’t think I could gave me a new confidence.

Back On The Road

In conclusion I am already back out on the road in the new Unit 11.

YouTube

Join me on the podcasts here as well as on my YouTube channel to see the new rig.

Now that all of this is out of the way I can announce the creation of a non profit.

Details in the podcast and video.
